Okay here we go and it is about time :D I only to get at the car at the weekends as I am working all week and never get the time :( I started by striping the car down inside as I plan to paint it when I have the of the car painted. This didn't take me long the whole inside was out in a hour and that was me stopping to chat to my friend to :D it was the most simplest car I have ever striped.

As the night went on I had loads of time to start taking all the bumpers off and really get the car down to the bear tin :) I started with the front half as it really is so easy to do.

Naw they don't come with any as far as I know. Mine is coming out when I paint the inside of the car :nice:
 
Some more updates[/COLOR] okay since I last put up pictures I have been flat out getting my car out for the Donegal rally :) after striping the car down I went on and pulled out the engine it wasn't a hard job it only took about 2 hours to do so
